Leng Chitong was alone, wandering aimlessly in Leng's Villa, in a daze.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but be startled when he looked at a beautiful garden not far to his left.

The walls at the entrance to this garden are white and shiny, without a trace of dirt, and a crescent-shaped stone door is beautifully carved around the body, and directly above this door, several large characters are neatly written.

Flower Garden?

Leng Chitong was curious.

So, he walked slowly with a leisurely step.

When he stepped into the garden gate, countless flowers came into view, competing for beauty, in a variety of postures, purple and red, and the flowers were delicate.

Although it was late autumn at this time, when you stepped into this garden, it was as if you had immediately crossed into the spring when a hundred flowers were blooming, and there was a feeling of confusion in time and space.

Leng Chitong looked around, obsessed and intoxicated, self-evident.

Suddenly, his gaze fell on another arched stone gate not far away, and a few bent branches wanted to hide their shame, showing their graceful posture to the stone gate.

The twigs hung staggered, and the emerald jasper-like leaves glowed with a hazy light green light.

Such a strange tree is as bright as a pearl in this dreamy beauty.

This tree is the matchmaking moon old man who Leng Yueming and Jiao Niang fell in love with each other more than 20 years ago.

That year, Leng Yueming traveled the world out of the village, and when passing through the Qingtian Mountain in Yizhou, he came across this tree by chance.

Out of curiosity, he casually plucked a green leaf, and accidentally got pricked by a hard thorn on the branch.

Unexpectedly, this tree was highly poisonous, and the strange poison instantly entered through his wound.

This poison is extremely domineering, the speed of infection is unimaginable, Leng Yueming didn't even have time to be lucky, and he had already attacked his heart with poison.

Fortunately, the mountain medicine girl found it in time and rescued her.

Everything seems to be fate, and the two people with similar temperaments met because of this, and then their love was deeply rooted.

When Leng Yueming married Jiao Niang, she took great pains to build a flower garden for her in Leng's Villa, and specially transplanted this only strange tree in the world for her.

In order to commemorate their love, he named the tree "Jiaoyue Tree".

Leng Chitong was distracted, and involuntarily walked away slowly......

Just as Leng Chitong was about to step into the stone door, a crisp sound sounded, and he quickly retracted his steps, poked his head lightly, and quietly glanced at the situation inside the stone door.

"Madame, why are you doing this? I haven't said a word to the owner for so many years, but I always linger under this Jiaoyue tree all day long......"

Under the tree, a round stone table, four square stone benches, a beautiful woman wearing a white hosta and a dark purple dress sat in the middle, sipping the flower tea in her hand.

The beauty always frowned, a little haggard, without saying a word, occasionally looking up at the tree, and occasionally sighing softly.

Next to her stood a round-faced woman, gently shaking a feather fan for her.

Seeing that she was silent, the round-faced woman was also sad and shook her head helplessly.

The round-faced woman was silent for a while, and looked at the woman on the stone bench repeatedly, "Madam, the owner of the village asked me about your recent situation yesterday, and things have passed for so many years, otherwise, you don't want to worry about it anymore?" ”

After listening to the round-faced woman's words, the woman's eyes suddenly became more resentful.

She put down the teacup in her hand, "Cao'er, I also complain that my heart is difficult...... Although the trees are green, the garden is still there, and the people are still there, I am afraid to see him, and when I see him, I can't help but think of my miserable son......"

The woman smiled bitterly: "Think about it, in fact, he is not wrong, it's just that I don't know how to face him......"

After speaking, she picked up the flower tea in front of her again, tasted it lightly, and the bitterness in her mouth was straight to her heart.

Leng Chitong listened to the conversation, and his body shook.

He once complained about Leng Yueming and Jiao Niang, but at this time, he had no resentment in his heart about Jiao Niang.

Because he understood the helplessness and pain in Jiao Niang's eyes.

"Click!"

Leng Chitong didn't pay attention and stepped on the dead branch at his feet.

Under the Jiaoyue tree, the two lines of sight looked towards the source of the sound.

Leng Chitong was about to appear, when a white shadow suddenly flashed past him and pulled him out of Huajiaoyuan.

"Master!?"

Leng Chitong was surprised and couldn't help but exclaim.

It seems that it is really born and matured, and it was awkward to call Master for the first time, but now it is so smooth.

"Who?"

Cao'er quickly walked to the arched stone door.

"It's strange, the sound is obviously coming from here, why is there no one?" Cao'er was puzzled and muttered in a low voice.

"This flower garden has always been forbidden to break in, presumably we listened......" Jiao Niang turned her head and ignored it.

"Yes!" Cao'er scratched her head and smiled.

......

Leng Yueming turned her back and beckoned to Leng Chitong.

Leng Chitong, under Leng Yueming's signal, followed closely all the way.

Eventually, he took him to the place where the Clear Demon Cave in the back mountain was located.

"Do you know what this place is?" Leng Yueming turned her back to Leng Chitong, and her tone was cold.

Leng Chitong shook his head, "I don't know! I'm still very new to Leng's Villa......"

"You are not allowed to trespass on Huajiao Garden in the future, although the teacher values you very much, but you also need to abide by the rules of the village. If you make unforgivable mistakes, one day, you too will be thrown into this demon cave! Leng Yueming looked at Leng Chitong, with a stern expression.

"Clear the Demon Cave!?"

Leng Chitong suddenly raised his voice.

Leng Yueming frowned, turned around, and looked at Leng Chitong strangely, "What?" Do you know the Demon Cave? ”

Leng Chitong hurriedly put away his flustered expression and tried to regain his composure, "It's nothing...... It's just that I've heard Senior Brother Lu mention it before, and it seems to be terrifying......

After speaking, he took a closer look at the demon cave.

"I see......"

Leng Yueming muttered softly.

Suddenly, his eyes were strange, and his voice was very soft, as if he was telling Leng Chitong beside him, and it was more like talking to himself, "Although this Clear Demon Cave has always been prepared for the heinous disciples in the mountain villa, but sixteen years ago, I threw an innocent baby into this cave......"

Does he care!? Could it be that he felt guilty?

Leng Chitong saw the loneliness in the eyes of this cold man, and was shocked.

So, he asked tentatively, his voice uncontrollable and slightly shaky: "Both...... If he is innocent, why leave him here? He's just a baby, isn't this place to punish criminals? ”

"yes...... What's wrong with a baby? It's no wonder she still refuses to forgive me......." Leng Yueming took off her cold disguise, her tone was heavy, and the complexity in her eyes added a little more.

Leng Chitong accidentally discovered the deep sorrow in Leng Yueming's heart, and asked weakly: "Master, how do you seem to care about this baby very much, do you regret it?" If there was one more chance to choose, would you still want him to die? ”

You must say that you regret it!

Leng Chitong's eyes were uneasy and inexplicably nervous.

Leng Yueming didn't answer, but just looked at the mountain in the north direction of the Demon Cave.

As far as the eye can see, it is the tallest and most conspicuous among the mountains.

Leng Yueming couldn't help but say, took Leng Chitong's hand, and flew towards the mountain in an instant.

"Ahh

Leng Chitong screamed twice and was shocked.

It was only when he stood on his feet that he carefully opened his closed eyes.

Leng Chitong opened his eyes and was pleasantly surprised, as if a misty white cloud could reach out and touch, and he couldn't help but stretch out his hands.

Looking down, you can see the Leng's Villa in Nuoda.

The wind on the top of the mountain was extremely violent, and the ears of the cold red pupils were "whirring".

Why did he bring me here?

He turned his head to look at Leng Yueming in confusion.

Leng Yueming's eyes stared at the Leng Clan Villa at his feet and asked, "Is it high here?" ”

Leng Chitong nodded, looking at Leng Yueming inexplicably.

Leng Yueming paused, "Is it cold here?" ”

After Leng Chitong pondered, he raised his head, "Although I don't feel cold, it seems to be much cooler than in Leng's Villa." ”

Leng Yueming looked around, "Apart from you and me, is there anyone else here?" ”

Hehe, isn't he stupid?

Leng Chitong couldn't help but snicker, "Master, where is there anyone else here!" ”

"Can you shout and try?" Leng Yueming looked at Leng Chitong with an indifferent face.

Well?

Leng Chitong hesitated for a few seconds.

I saw that he was full of strength and shouted loudly to the bottom of the mountain.

"How's that...... Did anyone hear your shout? ”

Leng Chitong looked at the people under the mountain, and no one seemed to react, he scratched his head and said, "Master, it's too high here, I'm afraid they can't hear it, right?" ”

"If you take my place one day, you will definitely protect the whole mountain villa at the foot of the mountain. Only, are you willing to endure this loneliness? ”

"Where are you? Lonely? Leng Chitong seemed to understand or not, and muttered in a low voice.

"Yes, this unbearable loneliness in the heights. There is also a kind of mission that may not be understood even by the people you love the most. Leng Yueming looked into the distance, and her expression was mixed with a hint of emotion.

He pondered for a moment, quickly put away his sentimentality, and once again regained his cold face as before, with a firm and resolute attitude, "I think, I will still choose to kill him!" Although he is innocent, he was born a demon, his eyes are red, I can't bet on the whole villa! ”

Leng Chitong looked at Leng Yueming, who was very abnormal today, thinking that he must have heard the conversation between the two women in Hua Jiaoyuan just now, and suddenly reminded him of some past events in his heart.

It turns out that in your heart, there is only Leng's Villa, it turns out, this is the reason why you treated me like this back then......

Leng Chitong had a lot of thoughts in his heart.

It's really unintentionally inserted into the willows, and the question that has been haunting his mind for many years finally has an answer.

Leng Chitong reacted after a while, and waved his hand again and again in panic: "No, no, no!" Master, you don't want me to sit in your place in the future, do you? I don't want it, I don't want it! ”

"What? You still don't like my Leng Villa? Leng Yueming's tone revealed a hint of anger.

Leng Chitong knew that he was misunderstood, and hurriedly explained with an aggrieved face: "No, no, it's because the apprentice likes to be free and doesn't want to be bound by this title, I think Senior Brother Xu should be more suitable." ”

Leng Yueming listened to Leng Chitong's words but didn't think so, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Freedom? Who could ask for it! All living beings, who can escape fame, fortune, and love? Or obsessed with cultivation, or indulged in pleasure. All of them are confusing cages. Tell me, what is freedom? ”
